Beco Baby Carriers combine great ergonomics, excellent weight distribution and stylish design. Every piece is handmade from top quality designer fabric and heavy duty webbing and buckles. The Beco can be used with children from newborns to toddlers in front and back carries.

Designed by babywearing parent, sailor and rock climber, Gabby Caperon. Beco combines perfect ergonomics, excellent weight distribution and stylish design. Every piece is handmade in California in Fair Trade production facility. The Beco can be enjoyed from newborns to toddlers in front, hip and back carries. Great for Elimination Communication and nursing as well.

Currently there are TWO models of Beco Carriers. The NEW model is called the Beco Butterfly, and it contains a built-in infant insert for newborns that allows your baby to ride higher in the carrier in an ergonomically comfortable position. Since the insert base is narrower then the actual carrier base, infants can comfortably spread their legs while retaining the recommended position of knees higher than the bottom.

When your baby outgrows the need for the newborn insert, you simply place her into the main body compartment, and the infant insert lays flat against the carrier panel.

The internal sling or pouch is the most innovative feature of the Butterfly model. It enables you to securely buckle your baby into the carrier, then handle Baby + Carrier as a single unit. You can pass the baby to another caregiver without removing baby from the carrier. You can also put your 3+ month-old baby on your back very easily, just like putting on a backpack!

(If your child is 25 pounds or more, please also check out the Toddler Patapum, which is an inexpensive yet fabulous Italian carrier specifically designed for comfortably carrying older/heavier children. My 4 year old feels light as a feather in it, and comfortably napped on my back recently when he was sick.)

Beco Butterfly Product Details

Child can be worn on front or back and easily shifted from one to the other. (The hip carry is only possible with the 4th Generation Beco, not the Butterfly model.)

Tall, tapered carrier body provides lots of support for your baby or toddler, holds baby close to your body for greater comfort. Prevents the shoulder strain associated with wearing babies who like to lean backwards.

Adjustable buckles on the top of the body of carrier enable easy nursing access. In a front carry, loosen the buckles to allow your baby to drop down lower in the carrier. Then lift your breast to allow your baby to latch on.

The Butterfly has a removable head rest/sleeping hood, shaped like a rectangle with rounded edges. The head rest attaches to the body of the carrier with smooth nylon webbing and triglide buckles. The hood can be stored in the “hood keeper”, a sleeve-like pocket placed on the waist belt.

The shoulder straps have been fully redesigned. They are ergonomically shaped to better adapt to the wearer’s body, and are padded with 0.75″ foam for ultimate comfort.

The sternum (chest) strap is now connected to the shoulder straps and slides along their length. No more lost chest straps!

The waistband is now firmer and more supportive (no more folding over, pouching out or deforming), while still maintaining the same slim profile.

High-quality fabrics are smooth, stylish, and comfortable against the skin.
Fits waists from 25 up to 50 inches.
Padded leg holes prevent chafing of little thighs.

Recommended care: wash on gentle cycle in cold water with a mild detergent. Hang to dry overnight in well ventilated area. Spot clean when needed. Care instructions are sewn to the carrier on the product label, so you always have them handy.

“Having had the chance to use my new custom Beco over the past week, I just wanted to tell you that I continue to be amazed with the quality and the cleverness of the Beco design. It’s so comfortable for me to wear, even for extended periods. Plus, I can get my squirmy daughter into a back carry in no time.

I will continue to sing your praises to every other mommy I know.”

I just wanted to take this chance to tell you how much I am loving my bECO!!! My custom Amy Butler with brown straps is so beautiful and amazingly comfortable!!! I LOVE this carrier!!
